Congratulations to Head Coach Tony Basha and the First Grade boys who took out the grand final today against Hills Brumbies with a 4-1 victory.

A healthy crowd made their way to the grandstand at Football NSW headquarters for what promised to be a classic between the competition’s two biggest heavyweights.​After having the better of play during an entertaining first half, Rydalmere eventually edged themselves in front via a Zac Elrich goal on the stroke of half time, before the league’s top marksman, Peter Cejkaa, restored parity for Hills just after the hour mark. Amaury Gauthier put Rydalmere back in front shortly afterwards, before two more goals in injury time – one from substitute, Yoel Silvestre, and Gauthier again, with hissecond – completed the scoring in the season decider.

The boys were enthusiastic and determined from the outset, and even though at times the game didn’t seem to be panning out like they had wanted, they stayed focused and applied themselves to the task at hand.

Simon Zahra was the Man of the Match, working tirelessly across the midfield, always showing himself as a support and often winning possession as he sent his attackers on their way. Zac Elrich and Amaury Gauthier were dangerous in attack whenever they had the ball at their feet, whilst captain, Matthew Mayora, was a rock in defence, leading by example throughout.

Thanks must also go to assistant Michael Canale, Team Manager Louie El Khoury , Monica Bacha, the medical team of Charbel Daher and Danny Kim for their support of the boys.

Next Sunday 25th September make sure you are at Valentine Sports Park to watch the boys in action in their respective Grand Final games.

The Under 18's kicked took on Hills Brumbies in the Preliminary Finals. The boys had a 1-0 lead at half time and finished strongly to earn 3-0 victory. Goals came via a double to Solomon Lado and Nickrod Vatandoust.

Head Coach Chris Camilleri was a proud man after the game as his boys earned their grand final spot from 5th position.

1st Grade faced Sydney Uni in their encounter and it was one for the fans who watched a thriller.

Following on from a scoreless first half, the match unfolded to then produce six goals, a red card, two regulation time penalties, a penalty in extra time that was saved, a penalty shootout, and even a substitute who was substituted himself just three minutes after entering the field, but not before he managed to score a goal! It was an incredibly entertaining Preliminary Final.

Amaury Gauthier scoring yet another double, while the man Lloyd Owusu scoring with his first touch of the game.

It came down to a penalty shoot out and it was none than our goalkeeper Harrick Sinpraseuth who stole the show with some clutch saves to earn victory.

Head Coach Tony Basha who puts faith in his players and it was on display today.

Unfortunately the Under 20's were unable to complete the trifecta as they went down 3-0 in their fixture. But nothing can take away the season they have had.

Well done all, and thanks to the supporters who braved the conditions to show the boys their support.
